The operating and safety specifications for power supplies have become more complex, adding to the length, level of detail and complexity of their data sheets. Our latest white paper, Interpreting Complex Data Sheet Specifications for Power Supplies, provides an overview of the extensive technical information that today’s power supply designers must examine as they review product data sheets.

The white paper covers important concepts such as interchangeability considerations, thermal management, and the mechanical drawings that show the relationships between specifications. It also helps engineers sift through the growing number of mounting and remote placement options so they can make efficient use of space in ever-shrinking end products. And since specific industries like medical and railways have special requirements, readers will find a section explaining safety and certification information. While data sheets are becoming longer, the information they provide is now much richer. This white paper will help customers apply that additional knowledge to make well-informed purchasing decisions.
